What is a connection timeout and what causes it?
A connection timeout is an error that occurs when it takes too long for a server to respond to a user’s request.
Connection timeouts usually occur when there are multiple active connections to a database and one of them is performing an operation that involves modification of the data stored. In that case, the other connections have to wait until that operation is done before they can perform their own operations. When that waiting time crosses the time limit, it causes a connection timeout.
